Raptor taking flight

Changing baby sitters. This eagle sat at the nest waiting for the mate to return when the mate came into view they vocalized back and forth for quite some time even after they were both at the nest. It appeared this one was not pleased with the mate and sat looking at it for quite a while perhaps because no food was brought in. I focused on the eagle and held the back button down and as soon as she lifted off I held the shutter down without looking through the viewfinder until there was a blank screen. Meanwhile the one at the nest sat looking sheepish.
